It is part of the user profile. So, it could be set via an extension for example. The sample configuration extension does exactly that - disables creating PDF forms (along with various other useful changes) https://wiki.documentfoundation.org/File:Sample_LO_configuration_extension.oxt I made a patch to turn off "create PDF form" by default since the PDFs we create that contain content controls are actually really poor. https://gerrit.libreoffice.org/c/core/+/152622 However, I do not fell comfortable having my name associated with this change. There seem to be some internal PDF structures that depend on forms being enabled in order for some unit tests to pass. They don't really seem to be involved in export in the normal process. However, I don't like being required to have some parts of LO default to true and other parts default to false. So I will abandon that patch and leave it to PDF people to pick it up if they want it. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are the assignee for the bug.
